Some timely June lawn care and landscaping information for your use.

Plant: Hot-weather, tropical annuals for summer color. New turfgrass from seed, sod, plugs or by hydromulching. (Be prepared to water the new grass daily. Make sure to follow the water restrictions in place in your town.) Trees, shrubs, vines and groundcovers. Watch for end-of-season specials for best savings. Hand-water these new plants for their first summer to help them thrive.

Prune: Erratic growth from shrubs to maintain natural form. Remove lower limbs from shade trees if excess shading threatens your turfgrass. Wait until mid-July to prune oaks, to lessen chance of oak wilt problems.

Fertilize: Lawn and landscape plants, flowers and vegetables, all with the same fertilizer. If you’re in a sandy soil, use a high-nitrogen fertilizer such as 20-5-10 or 24-6-12. In clay soil, apply a quality all-nitrogen food such as 24-0-0. Apply water-soluble and timed-release fertilizers to container gardens.

April Gardening Tips:

Plant: Plant warm-season vegetables and warm-season annuals. Perennials into well-prepared garden beds. Warm-season lawngrasses container plants for the patio and entryway. Use high-quality potting soil and long-lasting plants.

Prune: Azaleas, quince, bridal wreath, forsythia, wisteria and Carolina jessamine immediately after they finish blooming. Low limbs that cast excessive shade on turf areas can be removed now. Seal cut ends of oaks to prevent entry of diseases.

Fertilize: Apply high-nitrogen or all-nitrogen fertilizer for burst of growth in lawn. Same food will work well with crape myrtles, althaeas, also spring-flowering shrubs and vines that have finished blooming. Container plants with timed-release product, also with water-soluble product. Add iron and sulfur supplements to correct chlorosis (yellowed leaves with dark green veins, most prominent on newest growth). Keep all iron products off surfaces that could be stained.

On the Lookout: Apply “broadleafed” w**dkiller spray to control any w**d that isn’t a grass. Control snails, slugs and pillbugs with Sevin dust or baits.

March Gardening Tips –

Prune – Prune any damage by our winter ice and snow. “Scalp” the lawn if so desired, one notch lower than normal.. Wear safety gear when doing this.

Plant – Finish all dormant-season digging and moving of established trees and shrubs immediately. Cool-season annuals early in month, warm-season color late in month. Same schedule for cool-season and warm-season vegetables. Wait to plant warm-season lawn grasses until the end of month.

Fertilize - Shrubs, groundcover beds with all-nitrogen or high-nitrogen plant food, as dictated by a soil test. Diluted, water-soluble plant food should be applied to new groundcover beds, annual flower and vegetable transplants, and pots and hanging baskets. Repeat frequently for container plants.
Other - Apply pre-emergent w**dkiller granules to prevent germination of crabgrass, grassburs. Treat March 15 and June 15. Use a post-emergent broadleafed w**dkiller spray to control dandelions, clover and other broadleafed w**ds in turf.

February – Gardening Tips

Prune: Summer-flowering shrubs, vines, and shade trees. Never “top” trees! Fruit trees, before growth resumes for spring. Pruning of peach and plum trees is especially important as you remove strongly vertical shoots and encourage mostly horizontal branching. Bush-type roses to one-half or two-thirds of their original heights. Always prune just above an outward-facing bud. Wait until May to prune climbing roses.

Plant: Fruit and pecan trees, bramble berries, grape vines early in month. Cold-hardy vegetables, including onions, English peas, cole crops, leafy and root vegetables mid-month. Cold-hardy annual flowers, including pansies, pinks, snapdragons, calendulas, poppies, alyssum, wallflowers, petunias, stocks, English daisies. Divide established clumps of summer- and fall-flowering perennials. Move shrubs and trees while they are still dormant, early this month.

Fertilize: Ryegrass and fescue with high-quality, all-nitrogen fertilizer mid-month. Newly transplanted trees, shrubs with high-phosphate, root-stimulator fertilize

Other: Apply broadleaf w**dkiller to non-grassy w**ds that may appear. Best time to apply is during warm, dry spells.
